My proposal right now would be that those, those turn over to T-Hangers. And the reason why that, that I say that is they are— I'm sorry, that Apron Charlie and Apron Delta go to the airport requires T-Hangers just because What we're doing is we're taking what is currently open space and currently what you would call dense aircraft storage. And as the, as the airport manager, I would not want to displace, you know, you count the number of aircraft on Apron Charlie and it's going to be, you know, 25, 30 aircraft. I would hate to displace 30 aircraft aircraft and replace that with storage for 4 aircraft or 6 aircraft. I think that the best way— that our best way forward is to almost a like for like.
